Marketing SaaS comparison
Shopify vs ZentroTECH
Shopify vs custom Next.js for Indian D2C — when Shopify's monthly fees beat custom, and when a ZentroTECH lead engine site wins.
What Shopify is, honestly
Shopify is global e-commerce standard. ₹2K-25K/month + transaction fees. Strong app ecosystem, weak SEO for India SMBs, no native lead-engine capabilities.
When Shopify wins
- Pure e-commerce with 1000+ SKUs
- Need 100+ app integrations
- International selling priority
When ZentroTECH wins
- Service business (not pure e-commerce)
- Lead-gen is primary, transactions secondary
- Want SEO-optimised site, not Shopify SEO limits
Pricing, side by side
Shopify
Shopify Basic + apps + theme: ₹5-15K/month
ZentroTECH
ZentroTECH custom site ₹1.5-3L one-off + ₹0 monthly hosting
Verdict
Custom wins for service businesses; Shopify wins for pure-product.
